Props to the Tennessee OL tonight, especially in the fourth quarter.

I see everyone giving players props for tonight, so I wanted to tip my hat to the offensive line for some HUGE blocks there in the second half, in particular the fourth quarter. I need to wait for the replay to name the right names, but there were some absolutely MONSTER seals to spring some of those big runs that put the game on ice. The runs themselves were awesome too, but that blocking led the way. When the game was on the line, the Tennessee offensive line went out there and set the tone. Good on them.

They had some timely blocks especially that seal from Mincey late, but Sampson made some exceptional efforts on his own as well. Without those, I'm not sure we win this game.

We really need to be less predictable. I think we passed once on 1st down and it worked out well. The Defenses know we are going to run the ball on 1st down. We need to keep them honest with some passes.
Completely agree. It’s like when we pick up big yardage for a first down. The next play, 99% of the time seems to be a run. While it does work, why not throw in some pass. Also, and this is just nitpicking but I wonder why we never try any kind of trick plays? No double passes or things like that.

Bc we lead the sec in rushing. It's what we do.

Shout out Gerald Mincey! He is a beast when he pulls from his right tackle spot

Milton isn't causing their false starts and lack of push/protection in the red zone.
Actually, Milton was pretty f###### sharp last night. He ran when he needed to most of the time (and got the first down), and he was moving and nailed a perfect cross body throw to on of the wide outs. Dude hasn't had that type of accuracy all year.

I know a lot of younger fans like to see the ball thrown on every down and 55 on the scoreboard but me personally I'm enjoying running the ball, beating teams up and controlling the clock.
